| Description: | The BEST (Benguela Source and Transport) project was designed to investigate the form of the Benguela Current and ratio of the Aguhlhas Current and South Atlantic Current source waters masses. The transport of the Benguela Current and its variability was measured by a moored array of instruments, inverted echo sounders (IES), inverted echo sounders with pressure gauges (PIES), current meter moorings, and hydrographic surveys as wells as analysis of the TOPEX/POSEIDON satellite altimeter data. This report presents data from the current meter moorings. |
